In what amounts to a half-baked blind item, Gerard Bulter has been accused of ruining the not-so happy marriage of a fellow thespian – the as-yet unnamed actress calling time on her fledgling marriage because she couldn't get enough of the Scottish actor's wee Scotty. "It was a very intense relationship. She had very strong feelings for Gerard, despite the fact that she was a newlywed at the time," squealed a source. "They would exchange heated text messages, emails and phone calls. She would drop anything to be with Gerard. The two would hook-up at his hotel when he was in Los Angeles." And drop her husband she did. Which turned out to be ill-advised because Gerard was also sexing on other women and dealing with substance abuse issues – the affair ending around about the time he checked into Betty Ford. "She told her husband she would end things with Gerard and he agreed to give her another chance. However, the affair continued and she decided to file for divorce. She thought Gerard wanted to be in a relationship with her but then she found out he was involved with other girls, and hadn't been exactly honest with her about what was going on in his life," added the big-mouth. "[She] began calling Gerard incessantly and he changed his cell phone number. She hasn't been in touch with him since he decided to go to rehab. Gerard has obviously moved on but she is now going through a divorce and trying to support her son [from a previous relationship]." A brief marriage, recent divorce and son from a previous marriage – you know what this means? Speculation time! Let's take this down to the comment feed, shall we? [Radar]

Whitney Houston's mom, Cissy, surprised everyone by taking the high road when she discovered who took a snap of her dead daughter at the funeral home. Rather than rip the guilty party's face off she asked that the six-figure fee they received for the photo be donated to charity. "Whitney's grieving mom now knows who sold that photo to the National Enquirer," said some source-type, adding that she had a "had a come-to-Jesus moment" and decided to use her justified guilting opportunity for the greater good.

The anus of Aubrey O'Day's dog is at the centre of a Health Department investigation after someone made a complaint that she let it sit on the table at an LA eatery.

"The Health Dept would like people to enjoy eating with their pets," said a rep. "But we also want people to be respectful to other people." [TMZ]
